The MKS Instruments stock price gained 1.14% on the last trading day (Wednesday, 3rd Jun 2026), rising from $331.36 to $335.15. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 4.59% from a day low at $326.81 to a day high of $341.81. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 13.98% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -406 thousand shares and in total, 711 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $238.32 million.

Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 53.62% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $457.67 and $538.90 at the end of this 3-month period.
MKSI Signals & Forecast
The MKS Instruments stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $327.70 and $299.07. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, and so far it has risen 13.98%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).
